Life in Another World as a Maid Mage

The hot water poured into the tea ware makes a noise, and the scent of the flowers is fluffy and sweet. It has a refreshing, fruity aroma. The dried petals are slowly vaporized and the teaware water is vividly colored.

Wait a few minutes. When the tea was raised, a clear red ball liquid, like a high-purity gem, waved small. The man who melted the golden honey there with a spoon, gave the teaware to Connie with a gentle smile.

Drink it while it's hot.

"Thank you very much. I'll take it."

Put your mouth on the tea utensil and sigh slowly. A hint of acidity and floral aromas, as well as the sweetness of honey, spreading gently with the warmth of the water.

"... delicious"

The man gently narrowed his eyes to the honest feeling that leaked with his sigh.

"I have some baked goods... you want some?

"No, just your feelings."

Honestly, I was a little attracted to sweet things because I don't hate them so much, but considering that they are before bedtime, I refrained from doing so.

As he murmured and put the can of baked confectionery that he was taking out on the shelf, the man who arrived at the seat himself took the teaware and sipped the herbal tea.

"Yes, this blend is still a huge success. The colour, smell and taste are perfect."

Connie hides in the cup and smiles secretly at a man who sips a cup of herbal tea with his cheeky face.

Oskar Lundgren, the man who just became Archbishop. His predecessors were likely to be absent for a long time due to acute illness, and the absence of the chief executive at the Birthday Festival, which could be said to be the biggest event at Tris Cathedral, was also quickly named as poor physique. There was a lot of agony in taking office just before the birthday festival, but apparently my ancestors twisted it in the middle of the day.

The church is a gathering of priests who lead people close to each other based on their teachings. However, it is an organization that breaks up with many factions due to differences in interpretation and thinking, and is sometimes not a single rock that is fiercely opposed.

The previous generation was a major town of innovators. No matter how noble the teachings may be, they cannot come close to people's hearts without being in the right time. Preserve tradition, but also teach the times. It is the philosophy of the innovators that we should keep pace with the times.

As the country grew richer, it was thanks to the efforts of the innovators that the Cathedral of Tris was widely recognized and the number of believers and worshippers increased. Earlier generations probably didn't want to end the reforms that the innovators had been pushing here. Seeing that his illness was going to last, he recommended his own pocket knife as a successor early on. It was a little aggressive, but as a result, it has been accepted by the Pontifical Episcopal Service and remains so. Although the most formal sitting ceremony has not yet been performed, it is correct that the archbishop is in place.

The person who was at the center of such a shift drama is now sipping herbal tea at ease before his eyes. Oscars who change from sacred clothes to relaxed room clothes and sip herbal tea prepared by themselves don't look like the kaiseki of an innovationist town.

/(adv-to, adv-to) (on-mim) (on-mim) cheeky/

If you make an effect sound, that's the best look you can get.

But Connie knew very well that he wasn't the man he looked like. Otherwise, there is no way to be in the position of leading innovators.

"... so, did you talk to Shiori-san?

"Yes. Newspaper and magazine reporters wandered around and had a little trouble getting out, but they turned into freight forwarders and briefly explained the situation."

"Carrier"

"Yes"

Oskar, whose eyes were rounded, laughed loudly at the next moment.

"Haha, that's... what I'm going to do. I don't think priests come out in disguise."

With a pleasant smile, she sipped another sip of herbal tea, then sat back in the chair and confronted Connie.

"So, what did she say?

"... I was very sorry. He also agreed to provide the illusion of" Live Movie "technology and" The Gods' Perspective. "

Theori nodded easily without seeing how much she felt and was reluctant. as if it were only natural to do so. Rather, it seemed relieved somewhere.

(I don't want to...)

The proposal from the cathedral side is that the "gods' point of view" is a reproduction of the cathedral-owned books. In other words, assuming that the sight of the phantom originally belonged to the cathedral, that's what it is. That means she loses her own specificity.

Had she wished, the cathedral would have welcomed her with pleasure.

"... doesn't Oskar want to invite her to the church?"

"You know her? Why?"

"After all, it's not just a phantom. It was so vivid that I could not paint it unless I had actually seen it."

The scenery of the kingdom overlooking from high places. If that's all, you can imagine the view from the tall towers and mountains. However, the scene clearly depicts the boundary between the earth and the sea, which gradually rises in altitude and farther away. That horribly magnificent sight, with the horizon drawing a huge arc even farther away than you can understand the whole picture.

"It's too much to imagine..."

You will not know unless you have actually looked down from heaven. She knows that, hello.

"--Certainly, there are opinions that Shiori-san should be taken in. I think we should invite her to come back as a saint who knows God's point of view."

Ku, Connie bit her lips. I asked myself, and I was made aware of the cruelty of the words.

It sounds good to be invited in as a saint, but it would actually be close to house arrest. As a sacred thing, he refuses to make contact with Yuji, and as a saint, he appropriately pushes himself into the sanctuary, giving only what is necessary for faith, so that he can show his face to people only during festivals and rituals.

--A bulletin tower for missionary purposes. Murderers are treated the same way.

It was easy to predict that, and Connie moaned.

"When I tailored her to be a Virgin, I saw her being made into a bird in a cage. It is against the teachings of the Virgin, Sanna Grunden, to live and to live."

Of course, it is irresistible to follow a variety of laws beyond living as a human being in a civilized society and to be trapped in positions and fences.

But I can't tie my soul to it. Don't tie him up. Don't let others decide how the soul should be.

That is one of the teachings of the Virgin Sanna.

"I don't like the act of twisting such things and making them look sacred (...). Faith is spontaneous in nature. Neither forced nor recommended by others. Because it is only the base of mind, missionary activities are unnatural. Not to mention, I don't think it's a good idea to worship humans as gods."

In an era of modernization, such ideas about religion are becoming common. It is also about the existence of God.

However, the illusion of seeing the world shown by Shiori was so much more than even such a modern idea. It is not impossible for people to make noise.

"--I wonder if you remember. A year... no, about two years ago. There must have been an incident where an adventurer woman was abandoned by a friend who exploited her. He fell at the end of the expedition and left it there as it was."

"Huh?... ah, yes. You did, didn't you? That was... a terrible incident."

The incident, which also became a newspaper article, became a topic of discussion in the cathedral for some time. Many colleagues were angry and deeply saddened at the unexpected work of abandoning fallen companions to the dwellings of the beast. Some prayed for the woman. Fortunately, the victim's woman was protected and managed to save her life.

"... that woman was Shiori-san."

"Eh!? That's right!?"

Connie slightly peeled his eyes.

"No, but if it does... it really hurts."

I remember her smiling all the time. I didn't look like the victim of such a horrible incident very recently. It shouldn't have been a case of healing in just two years. Was she smiling when she pushed it to death?

"In a 'secret room' called a party, she was almost treated like a slave. Luckily, she was saved... but I can't say I was wrong to lock her up in a closet again and make her a doll to move for the church's sake. Even if she was really special."

"... that's right. Exactly."

Nod honestly.

Oskar smiled, fufu.

"It's really preferable not to get stuck in a religion like yours. While cherishing your priesthood, your feelings are extremely close to secularity. A man worthy of this open Cathedral of Tris. You can't stand people's hearts if you're too noble."

Take care of that feeling forever.

That said, Connie lowered his head deeply.

Oskar nodded satisfactorily when he saw it.

"... well, as far as she's concerned, just giving her the technology is enough. Birthday celebrations are exciting, patrol monks' comfort activities are plentiful, and whatever you say, it will be our entertainment." The Snow Princess and the Seven Knights "and" The Sweet House Cannibal Troll "were good, but the" Persica Knight "was so powerful."

"Haah!?"

Connie shouted furiously, forgetting his position as a clergyman and in front of the chief executive of the cathedral.

You sneaked a peek at the orphanage. Connie had a cramped smile.

"I've never seen anything like it before, but when did you do it?!

Working as one of his predecessors, he should have always been busy and had no time to get out. Not once, not twice, not three times.

"It's a secret."

Oskar laughed and shouted at Connie in front of him.

"Not to mention that."

I put up with what I wanted to say, and I put him right in front of me.

"I think Mr. Theori is probably the best person not to do anything bad. I don't think it's normal for people like you to use your own name to protect immigrant women."

"That's... but why?"

"Hmm, I don't know why. I think there might be some kind of circumstance where he was originally under his protection."

That means she could be a dignitary herself.

"In that case, if you become a victim of such a terrible incident, there are places where you don't feel at all guilty. Anyway, I told you in the dark that there was no need to do it, so there's nothing more to do than do it."

"... that's right. But..."

Not just Theoli, Alec, and Lori. They were interesting people. It was also fun to be with people who had thoughts and knowledge they didn't have.

"--As a friend, I wonder if I can put it out...."

Oskar smiles quietly as he murmurs.

"Of course I think that's good. Please do."

With that push, Connie nodded out of favor.

Yes!

There seems to be some reason for this, but in both cases, the chances of seeing each other in that magical phantom intersection will increase. You should deepen your friendship in the meantime. That's how you can hear about a world you don't know.

Connie smiled as he sipped the rest of the herbal tea and thought it would be more fulfilling than ever.
